I’ve facilitated Waldorf-inspired homeschool pods, trained through the Forest School Teacher Institute, and developed my own adaptable curriculum that supports academic growth through sensory-rich, emotionally attuned, and slow, intentional learning.

I’m a nature-based educator and experienced writing tutor with a gentle, reflective teaching style. I’ve facilitated Waldorf-inspired homeschool pods, trained through the Forest School Teacher Institute, and developed my own adaptable curriculum that supports academic growth through sensory-rich, emotionally attuned, and slow, intentional learning.

In addition to working with younger learners, I also support college students with writing, research, and personal expression. I’ve served as a college-level writing tutor and specialize in helping students craft compelling college application essays, refine academic papers, and build confidence in their voice.

Whether your child needs creative, hands-on learning or you're a student seeking thoughtful writing support, I tailor each session to meet your unique goals—with care, clarity, and connection.

Elementary (K-6th)

I have experience tutoring and facilitating classroom lessons for elementary and middle school students. I have privately tutored middle school students in history, social studies, math, and English. I was a facilitator for an afterschool hands-on science class for elementary school students as well as for an outdoor education program for middle school students. Not only am I knowledgeable in elementary subjects, I have a calm demeanor and I teach and listen with patience.

English

Writing and grammar have been my strongest points as a student and young professional. I received high grades in all my college and graduate classes that involved excellent writing skills, such as rhetoric, film theory, philosophy, environmental law, etc. I served as editor and author for Yale's premier graduate student-run publication SAGE Magazine. I have written editorials for local newspapers and blogs. For all of my jobs, I was the pair of eyes people sent their reports and letters to.
